Transcription of Meditation
Welcome everyone to the World Blessings Guided Meditations. Today's guided meditation is to help us to go more deeply into the process of surrender in the midst of what may feel like impasse or ongoing difficulty, those situations that you would like to change but that have not yet.
So just take a moment now to deeply relax, finding your heart, and allowing yourself to contact the deep place of stillness that exists in your larger being. You may or may not have conscious connection with it but if you have the intention and the prayer to contact that place of inner peace that will help to bring you a little bit closer.
It may help to place your hand over your heart, and allow yourself to be present to yourself. All the different feelings, sensations, thoughts, these are a part of you, they're not all of you, but they are a part of you.
As you breathe and as you breathe into your heart, allow yourself to hold everything that you are experiencing and the energy of love even if some of what you're experiencing may be difficult. Perhaps you're not feeling love, feeling angry, frustrated, frightened, or other emotions, see if you can hold everything that you're experiencing in love as you would hold a small child.
Breathing in, breathing out, breathing in, breathing out. Allow yourself to contact inside of you the transforming flame of love, that is your soul essence. This part of you brought you here to earth with the divine intentionality of your sacred purpose for incarnating here and now.
Call upon this part of yourself. Breathing in, breathing out, being aware of your surroundings both internally and externally. And our cat Miguel is joining us for this meditation. Breathing in, breathing out, allowing yourself now to drop down more deeply and allowing yourself to surround not only your emotions but your life circumstances with light. See everything including all the things that you wish weren't happening, surround them in light and surround your feelings and reactions also in light.
It's almost like the part of you, the larger part of you, is holding your embodied self like you would hold a child with so much love, unconditional love. Breathing in and breathing out, breathing in, breathing out. Sinking down more deeply, seeing if you can deeply relax even with the situations that you may feel of impasse or situations that feel stuck or that are not what you want. See if you can deeply relax, accepting all your feelings and still with the intention to relax and to feel your heart. Breathing in, breathing out, just sinking down more deeply. Being in a space of silence.
And now allow yourself to reach out to the divine with your heart, reach out with a prayer, a song or even if you don't have an experience of the divine, allow yourself to call out to the larger creator that we are all a part of. Pour your heart out, share everything that you're feeling, all the pain and difficulty, and ask for help. Ask for help, pray for help, and allow yourself to take the risk to be receptive enough to receive that help which you may or may not feel right away but your deeper connection with the divine and you're reaching out will bring our response. Breathing in, breathing out, allowing yourself to bring your consciousness now to your heart, to the place of peace inside of you that is still there even in turmoil, even in difficulty.
Breathing in, breathing out. Now give yourself the suggestion and the intention that this connection with the peace in your heart will strengthen and deepen and grow stronger and more present in your life. A place you can turn to over and over again no matter what's happening. Feel the nourishment of your own heart and of the larger divine oneness that you're a part of, that your own prayers and intentions may strengthen and deepen your connection with your heart.
Now I'll say a prayer also. Dearest most Holy God, Creator, we ask that all love and blessings come to every person that is listening to this meditation, to all of us that we may all be helped in times of difficulty, to go more deeply into our hearts and we ask that the support of love and light be available to us no matter what else may be happening in the outer world. We ask that this blessing may extend to all those on the earth, all beings, all embodied life on earth and to the earth herself. We ask that this holy blessing come to all and to come to ourselves. We give great thanks. Amen.
